Kann man Lederwaren reparieren?
When a leather repair makes sense
Beautiful leather goods made of high-quality leather are an investment that, with a little care, can last a lifetime. Nevertheless, it does happen that our beloved leather goods become damaged during daily use. Whether leather repair makes sense depends on the type of leather and how badly it has been damaged.
When is it worth repairing my leather product?
Anyone who invests in a product made of high-quality genuine leather will generally enjoy it for many years, perhaps even decades. Genuine leather goods are very robust and durable. Nevertheless, wallets, handbags and belts are often with us every day and are subject to wear and tear. It can happen that even a leather product of the highest quality
shows signs of wear. If these go beyond a charming patina, the question arises as to whether the leather product can be repaired.
When should I use the repair service?
If zippers or magnetic fasteners or metal parts are broken, the lining is torn or quilting seams are unravelled, a professional repair of the leather goods is essential. Send in your favorite leather item and trust in the professional service of our experts.
Don't wait too long! Small defects are usually easier to repair than major damage. "For example, if the lining on a credit card separator starts to come apart because too many cards were put in a card slot, we can still repair it," says master leatherworker Manfred Goll. "But if he waits too long and the whole thing turns into a total write-off, we can't do any magic anymore."

What can I do to make my leather product last longer?
To ensure that your leather product lasts as long as possible and looks beautiful and high quality over the long term, and to avoid any need for repairs, it is important to take care of the leather properly. There are suitable care and cleaning methods for every type of leather. Buy the necessary care products for your leather and be disciplined when it comes to handling your leather goods properly. Always test the care product first on a hard-to-see area. This way you can avoid any unpleasant surprises.
Treat your favorite leather item with care. For example, consider purchasing a separate wallet instead of overfilling your small purse. If you regularly fill credit card slots with more than one card per slot, for example, you run the risk of overstretching and damaging the leather and the seams of the purse, making repairs unavoidable. Zippered wallets should also not be filled so full that you can hardly close the zipper.
Longevity through care and repairs
The more carefully you treat your leather darling, the more likely it is that you will not have to repair it in the first place.
It is advisable to research care tips for all types of leather . If a repair is unavoidable, react quickly and have the defect repaired immediately before the damage increases and, in the worst case, becomes irreparable.
We are happy to help you with all possible small and large repairs with our lifelong Braun Büffel repair service . So that you and your leather goods can maintain a long and close relationship.
